deluge-web error related to GeoIP

[Vincent Fortier]

Currently preparing a PR on github to publish an updated version of deluge for Synology NAS for version DSM6 and DSM7 ​https://github.com/SynoCommunity/spksrc/pull/5398

Client and server are version 2.1.1

I noticed at deluged startup that it was complaining related to GeoIP:

deluged.log:23:26:53 [WARNING ][deluge.core.preferencesmanager:465 ] GeoIP Unavailable: 'NoneType' object is not callable

Did a bit a search and noticed that while the C library was properly included within the deluge package file, that the python wheel was missing.

Right after I've included the GeoIP wheel in deluge package, the deluge-web daemon failed to start with the following error:

Starting deluge command /volume1/@appstore/deluge/env/bin/deluge-web -c /volume1/@appdata/deluge  -l /volume1/@appdata/deluge/logs/deluge-web.log -L info --logrotate -P /volume1/@appdata/deluge/logs/deluge-web.pid -d

    username, password = get_localhost_auth()
TypeError: cannot unpack non-iterable NoneType object

It's not a blocker per say as I'll simply comment out GeoIP for now but wondered if there isn't an isse elsewhere?

Thnx in advance.

Seems similar to: ​https://dev.deluge-torrent.org/ticket/2926

After starting fresh with a default core.conf file and importing my changes from my previous version all is now good :) Problem now resolved.
